Toll roads debated by Wisconsin governor Kohler
Governor Walter Kohler urged further study of toll road needs at the Wisconsin County Boards Association convention in Elkhart Lake. He noted Wisconsin lags in all weather roads and proposed routes along the lakeshore from NoNois to the Fox River Valley and Highway 12 from NoNois to the Minnesota line. A toll system would require high costs and possible borrowing, with estimates of about 600 thousand dollars per mile for a dual-strip, four-lane road and a $600,000 per mile lineal cost led by Otto Rollman.
